Celtic close to reaching agreement for Maryan Shved?

Scottish champions Celtic are reportedly on the brink of bringing in Ukrainian winger Maryan Shved from Karpaty Lviv.

Hoops boss Brendan Rodgers confirmed his side's interest in the 21-year-old following the 4-0 win over St Mirren last week.

In a further update, Karpaty counterpart Fabriciano Gonzalez revealed at the weekend that it is now down to Celtic to get a deal over the line.

The Daily Record reports that Shved is on the brink of becoming Rodgers's fourth signing of the January window, as a transfer is near completion.

Celtic are working on finishing the formalities for the youngster, who has 14 goals in 35 games for Karpaty since arriving from Sevilla in 2017.

Once a deal is sorted, the Scottish Premiership leaders intend to send Shved straight back out on loan.
